Do you have a strong academic background and a passionate interest in a core subject? Are you interested in helping young people develop their core academic skills? Can you play a role in supporting young people’s well-being and progress?

Stockport School is looking to appoint an Academic Mentor - Specialist Subject Tutor to support in Maths. The successful post holder will work alongside our students both in class and in small groups across the core subject areas. Student groups may consist of KS3 or KS4 students including a focus on the support of Y11 GCSE students.

Candidates should be well qualified with strong GCSE passes in at least English and mathematics, at minimum grades C or 4 and above, including additional strong GCSE and/or A Level passes (or equivalent) in other subject areas. It would also be desirable for a candidate to be a graduate with a good Honours Degree or other Higher Educational qualification, Qualified Teacher Status, or HLTA Status.

The school is a very popular over-subscribed school with year-on-year improving results and the quality and consistency of our in-class curriculum support and supportive intervention and enrichment supervision are important to our ongoing progress and success.

This is an exciting opportunity for an outstanding individual who has the relevant experience, commitment and drive and who is passionate about encouraging every child to reach their full potential within a supportive academic environment. We welcome applications from colleagues who are determined to make a difference.

This opportunity may well appeal to candidates who wish to experience working in a school environment with a view to pursuing a career in education or to candidates who already have QTS but are looking for a change of direction. Academic Mentor Subject Tutors who decide to embark on this route will be supported in their applications for PGCE and Schools Direct training courses.
